electrodeionization system Articles

Electrodeionization (EDI) is a water treatment technology that has gone from an unproven and unknown commodity to one that has revolutionized the industry in the past 20 years. The technology was first introduced to the market in 1987 by Ionpure Technologies. EDI is used in small and large applications. Laboratories use EDI in systems as low as 360 gallons per day (gpd), while power plants, ...

Electrodeionization (EDI) is typically used in combination with RO systems to produce pure or ultrapure water, continuously and without chemicals. This combination eliminates the need for regeneration chemicals and the inherent cost, safety and inconveniences of storage, handling, treatment and discharge associated with ion exchange systems. Power plants, electronics manufacturers and ...

Continuous Electrodeionization Process The continuous electrodeionization process (CEDI), is a system that uses ion exchange resins and electricity for the production of ultrapure deionized water without chemical processes and without production stops. SIMPEC uses modular systems for the electrodeionization processes. The CEDI modules are installed at the exit ...

Abstract: To be competitive in the deregulated market, power producers are looking for ways to lower operating costs while maintaining a reliable supply. To this end, many plants have investigated innovative technologies for boiler make-up water treatment. One such technology is the combined reverse osmosis (RO) and electrodeionization (EDI) system. While this system offers several benefits, its ...

Electrodeionization (EDI) is a chemical free water treatment technology that eliminates the need for off line chemical regeneration. EDI has gone from an unproven and unknown commodity to one that has revolutionized the industry in the past 20 years. Much has been written and discussed about the use of EDI systems for industrial applications such as power plants and semiconductors, where flows ...

Overview Brazos Electric Cooperative Power Plant in Cleburne, TX is a nominal 258 MW combined cycle gas fired power plant operating on AGC (Automatic Generation Control) load requirements. The plant uses approximately 54 million gallons of water per year for boiler feed water and NOx control of its combustion turbine. The power plant was originally commissioned in 1997. The ...

Project Background Puerto Rico Electric Power Authority (PREPA) is the owner of South Coast Steam Power Plant located at Guayanilla in the island of Puerto Rico, about 150 KM south of San Juan. This power station is one of PREPA’s oldest units and uses an oil fired boiler as part of its generation process. The plant decided to replace an ...

A novel process coupling photosynthetic bacteria (PSB) with electrodeionization (EDI) treatment was proposed to treat high ammonia wastewater and recover bio-resources and nitrogen. The first stage (PSB treatment) was used to degrade organic pollutants and accumulate biomass, while the second stage (EDI) was for nitrogen removal and recovery. The first stage was the focus in this study. The ...

The Facility Andres Power Plant, developed by Caribbean Thermal Electric LLC, is located in Boca Chica, near Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic. It is a 300 MW gas fired combined cycle power plant and is one of the largest IPP power plants in the Dominican Republic and will supply electricity to Corporacion Dominicana de Electricidad. The plant consists of two power blocks, which ...

CO2 is difficult for both RO and EDI to remove since it has no charge or is weakly ionized. It is important to remove CO2 in the electrodeionization pretreatment because CO2 lowers EDI product water quality, competes with silica for removal, and may lead to scaling ...

Electrodeionization (EDI) is widely used in many industrial water treatment systems throughout the world. In order to maximize the operating stability and life expectancy of an EDI system they were often designed with double pass RO using caustic injection pretreatment. However, in response to recent efforts to lower the capital expenditure and operating costs of double pass RO water treatment ...

Abstract: This paper describes the process and equipment used to treat a Mexican secondary water source in order to supply boiler feed make-up to a combined cycle power plant. RO pretreatment is provided by a highly efficient micro media filter that produces a filtrate with a turbidity of 0.1 – 0.2 NTU and an SDI value of 3 – 5. Following the RO, a compressed-bed ion exchange system ...

Project Background Sabine Pass, a large LNG refnery in the United States, required a membrane desalination solution to cater to its extensive process water needs in order to produce a large amount of liquefed natural gas for export. The water is used for injection for compressor turbines for methane, propane and ethylene, wash water for gas turbines and other utility make-up ...

Electrodeionization (EDI) uses electrical current, in lieu of acid and caustic chemicals, to regenerate cation and anion resin. Reverse osmosis/EDI systems are now widely used to replace conventional mixed-bed ion-exchange (IX) technology in a broad range of applications. Proven effective at high flowrates, EDI has in recent years been incorporated in water treatment plants around the world, ...

A small industrial entrepreneurial company on the East Coast was considering using high purity water in the production of their high quality product. They were concerned the ‘larger’ water companies would not give the project the attention it deserved, and that the system may cost too much. They came to Applied Water Solutions, Inc. for the solution. Solution AWS met with the client and ...

Electrodeionization Evaluation Programsm (EEP)Applied Water Solutions was contacted by a client who owned the largest EDI System in operation today. They faced numerous challenges including a decline in system performance. Having over 20 years of experience with EDI we understand all the parameters that effect EDI performance, and were able to provide the client with objective recommendations to ...

Water purification by reducing the concentration of ionic impurities has been an area of considerable technical interest. Water treatment technologies have rapidly advanced in recent years to where a myriad of options have been developed for this purpose. The most well-known processes include electrodialysis, electrodeionization (EDI), liquid chromatography, membrane filtration, and ion exchange. ...

Part 1 of this series compared spiral-wound electrodeionization(EDI) with more traditional plate-and-frame EDI. The plate-and-frame design is similar in construction to a plate heat exchanger with multiple fluid chambers sandwiched between a set of endplates (and electrodes). Within there are a series of cation and anion ion-exchange (IX) membranes. The spiral-wound design uses a pressure vessel ...

Project Background Orpic (Oman Oil Refineries and Petroleum Industries Company) required a thermal seawater desalination solution as part of its Sohar refinery improvement project to ensure an uninterrupted supply of fresh feed water to for its boilers. ...
